Vehicle Description
Motorcar Studio is pleased to offer this 1963 Austin-Healey 3000
MkII BJ7. This big Healey was restored in 2007 to a nice driver
standard by a well-known shop in California. It was sold at
Barrett-Jackson's 2008 Scottsdale Auction for just over $70k and
then changed hands once more five years ago; it has been enjoyed by
its current owner on sunny days since.
The restoration was extensive and well documented, including a DVD
photo catalogue of the work - it included an engine rebuild,
bare-metal repaint, new interior, new wheels and tires and
suspension refresh. The ten-year-old restoration is holding up well
- paint, interior and body are very presentable. Good gaps, rubbers
and glass. The bonnet does have two areas where the paint has
lifted and cracked and there is a light patina to the brightwork
and chrome. Engine compartment and underside are tidy.
This Healey runs and drives well - it has been serviced regularly
by a marque specialist and we believe everything to be in working
order except the overdrive. It is accompanied by a Heritage Trust
certificate (which confirms the numbers-matching engine),
restoration documentation, Barrett-Jackson auction catalogue and
sale information and owner's manual. A turn-key icon that is ready
for weekend cruising or local shows.
